A little bit about me and my world...

Hi, my name is Kelly. I'm a mother, daughter, sister, friend, artist, goof ball, just trying to live a happy life and leave a little love in the world before I go.
I grew up in So. California. I was always drawing or painting or creating something when I was a kid. Making art has always brought me peace. I think I would go crazy if I didn't keep creating! I'm officially an empty nester now, so I decided it was time to take my art out into the world! Yikes! I'm very excited to see what my future holds! We'll see!
To check out my portfolio, please go to my website www.kellylish.com.
My art is mainly paintings with acrylics, but sometimes I'll add in... ink, pastels, collage and wax.
Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by my blog...I hope you enjoyed your visit !
I'm wishing you happiness and peace, right here from my home sweet home in Studio City, CA.
Love, Kelly

A few months ago I met a wonderful woman on my blog. We began communicating back and forth between our blogs and emails. There was such a connection. Then in October we met in person and shared 5 magical days together in Idaho. I felt as if I had known Kolleen all of my life. Our friendship has continued to grow, and I feel deep inside that we are soul sisters, finally united. I am so grateful for this angel coming into my life.
Kolleens blog is awesome, and her artwork is adorable and energizing! She has a way with words and questions that make you dig deep and find the truth. She is running a 6 week series of stories, every Friday, that describe something difficult that someone has gone through in their life, and is now "better for it". She asked me if I would share my story. Her and I both believe that there is so much healing to be had when we share, not only for us, but for a reader in need. So tonight she has posted my story. I hope it gives hope to someone out there that has lost their way. Life is good.
Thank you Kolleen, at Heartwing Sisters, for letting me share my story. I love you soul sister of mine!

You know it's going to be a good day when you wake up to the news that you are featured on someone's blog. It's a great feeling to be recognized. The other day I recieved this very nice email from a woman named Debbie, asking if she could feature my artwork on her blog. Well of course I said YES! And so here it is...so fun for me! Thank you Debbie, I so appreciate your kindness!
